WHats really the differencebetween KK and TKD ?

I mean , you guys are both Karate Offshoots that arent allowed to punch to the head in Sparring , right ?

I mean , I just wonder why in so many minds KK gets a lot of Respect and TKD gets almost none ?

By the By , im not one of those ppl that thinks TKD ios useless , so dont get Irate , please . Ive trained with good ppl from both systems , I nefver really heard about the rumours till I got on the Interweb .

TKD is generally limited to point sparring and light contact
KK has full contact as a staple
that's really the big difference

I must have come from a different 'era' TKD school. In the lower belts (white, yellow, green, blue) we did light contact sparring. In the upper belts (red, brown, black) we put on the chest protectors and head gear and basically did full contact sparring. I remember I got KO'd in class before. It wasn't uncommon to have 1 or 2 per week to really get their bell rung. We also did the point sparring stuff, but our instructor wanted to make sure we could hit and take a hit "for real" if the need ever arose. However, the only thing that bothered me was that we weren't allowed to punch to the face/head.

I have seen several of the McDojo's out there, and yes, their sparring classes are laughable to say the least.

As with any style, if you get the right instructor - the possibilities are endless. If you get the wrong instructor, it is just pointless.

I think that this is the main difference between TKD and KK - we do not use any chest guards, head protectors, padding, etc.

The other main difference is that we kick to the leg, whereas TKD does not (to my knowledge at least).

Second main difference is the competitions - we fight for 3 minutes, and the goal is to knock the other guy down (again, no padding).

Third main difference is that we train 50% punches, and 50% kicks - I'd say that TKD is approx 70% kicking. Also, a good KK fighter needs to have knockdown power in his hands, as well as his feet.
